WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

I steeped the grains in 5L of water at 67 degrees Celsius for 30mins. After that I added the DME and brought to the boil.

The first hop addition went in once boiling started then 45mins later the second addition was added for 15mins.

The LME was added to the fermenter then the hot wort was poured on top. Cold water was added to the fermenter to top up to 20L.

Yeast was added at 16 degrees celsius.

Fermented for two and a half weeks due to me being away for work reasons.
